Andrew Nabbout 'back to full fitness,' ready to push for Socceroos spot

Andrew Nabbout plans to show Graham Arnold he has fully recovered from a shoulder injury as he returns to Socceroos camp for the first time since his World Cup campaign was cut short.

The 25-year-old attacker had reconstructive surgery to mend the shoulder he dislocated in Russia but has cut his projected six-month absence in half to be a chance of featuring in Saturday's friendly against South Korea in Brisbane.

Usually a winger, the Japan-based Nabbout became Australia's target man during Bert van Marwijk's tenure in charge of the national team and says he is happy to play anywhere in the front four under Arnold.
